Hello French People,
I've added a new feature to the site for those of you who speak French.
If you put the text "Quebec" or "QC" in your "Location", a "translate to french" button will appear at the bottom of every post on the site. You can use that button to translate the post from English to French. It's a machine translation, so it's not perfect. It also won't work on really long posts or posts full of images.
Enjoy!
Bonjour peuple français, j'ai ajouté une nouvelle fonctionnalité sur le site pour ceux d'entre vous qui parlent français. Si vous mettez le texte "Quebec" ou "QC" dans votre "Location", un "traduire en français" bouton apparaîtra à bas de chaque poste sur le site. Vous pouvez utiliser ce bouton pour traduire le poste de l'anglais au français. C'est une traduction par machine, de sorte qu'il n'est pas parfait. Il ne fonctionnera pas sur de très longues postes ou des postes plein d'images. Amusez-vous bien!

You betcha |

it's impressive how the Québec forum shifted from a mostly anglophone board few years ago , to a vastly francophone now.
The anglos fleed while the francos joined !!!

Not entirely true, some of us sometimes hide and pretend to be 100% quebec francophone since it's like talking in our own secret language that is not able to be penetrated by any machine known to man. Kinda like the 3D version of thug talk using moor's code.

i dont think people from quebec need this. Its more the people elswhere that shoudl have thet in thier profiles. Moi j'en ai pas besoin! And the majority of qc cats are bilingue.

Thanks Av. I know at least one person who will find this tool helpful.

Yep, look at the top right of any post, you'll see a "Translate to English" link.

LOL I have no perception
thankies
Nevermore |

When I hit that link I get an object error. Google Chrome also does machine translation on entire pages - if you load a page in any language other than your preferences default, Chrome recognizes the language and offers to translate it for you. I believe it's the same translation engine as Google language tools.

uer's translation system sucks.
It was never fully operational. It doesn't recognize accents and messes up many words.

I've spent some time fixing it today. It now does a better job of handling line breaks and it doesn't ignore accents anymore. It should work better now!

Keeps throwing "Translation Error (Object required)" for all post I am trying to translate

I think Google deleted their translation API...
huskies - such fluff. |

| Important: Google Translate API v2 is now available as a paid service only, and the number of requests your application can make per day is limited. As of December 1, 2011, Google Translate API v1 is no longer available; it was officially deprecated on May 26, 2011.

Damn... that sucks.
